This is why this movie is so touching, because there is a heart and a philosophy behind the drama, the action, the comedy.

Especially when Dalton meets Emmett, and kind of get to know each other.

There's simplicity in decency and kindness, that is so rare these days.

Maybe it is corny, but why is being good so wrong?

There's a lot a like, like the concept of being prepared for worse case scenarios.

Be nice, until it's time to Not Be Nice.

And it's that common simple truth, the balance between, those who want to live decently and responsibly and those who want to endlessly take.

Maybe someday this will be common again, to show decency as the normal.

And that too is the pattern of life, what is common and popular becomes less popular over time, until once again it becomes popular again as part of the cycle of life.

I am watching it again, listening to the touching music, as Doc and Dalton make love, to find and open the heart to the truth of their connection and chemistry.

And that is kind of powerful, that it's more about that, as a counter-balance to the endless raunchiness in the bar.

To me, I miss the days of good movies, with original plots, that didn't overdwell on action, blood, violence and sex and drugs.

Jimmy Stewart was that kind of actor in the past, and maybe Patrick Swayze was in his time.

Who knows.

What kind of world do you want to live in?

Think about that!

This is just a good movie, I'd even say it's a great B-movie.

First off, what really sells me on this movie is the following factors.

1. The Music, I really love the music, just touches me, the power and the mystery of the American west, the natural wonders that is America. Just powerful and touching music.

2. Two Boys Meet, I really like the meeting of the two boys, maybe it was glossed over a bit, still the boys part was one of myth building that this movie does really well.

3. The Older Brother, he just out acts the guy portraying his younger brother, but he does it in such a natural way. This is how a normal guy would do or say, to protect his family, his loved ones.

4. The natural beauty of the American wild west.

5. Christopher Lloyd, I just purely love this classic character actor's work. Even when he's young, he just out acts, out performs as a pure evil, methodical, military style villain. He is outstanding as Butch Cavendish.

6. The Death of the Rangers, feels so real, so powerful, so dusty.

7. The power and truth of the white horse, as a spirit for truth and justice. The silver bullets and the white horse, mediums for delivering truth and justice! Hi Ho Silver, and away! 8. Jason Robards, He looks awesome, as the manly President Ulysses S. Grant, he exudes presidential material.

Even with the real bad moments of acting, plot writing.

There is still so much to treasure, to value.

And let's be honest, Hollywood really sucks at doing remakes, just look at how they poorly remade The Green Hornet.

FYI, are you aware that "The Lone Ranger" (John Reid) is a distant uncle to "The Green Hornet" (Britt Reid)? Even in the The Green Hornet TV Show in the 1960's in Britt Reid's office is a photo of a masked man, "The Lone Ranger".

To me this is a classic of both western myths, but of truth and justice.

Well I have nothing but the utmost the respect for the actors in this crap movie.

However, trying to make current American citizens guilty for the evil crimes of slavery that occurred over 100+ years ago, is just purely wrong.

John Travolta is a good to fair actor, and there are many other good actors in this movie.

If we truly want to encourage better treatment of each other, the best way is not about endlessly reminding us of the evil's of the past.

But to encourage, promote and reward people for treating people fairly.

This movie concept is horrible, execution is horrible.

There is no remote redeeming value to this movie.

I am very sorry to say that.
